I Became the Tyrant of a Defense Game - Chapter 575

◈ 575. [STAGE 35] Find The Way (3)

Both of the midnight sun, which were divided into two, died.

Baekya, the master of the mage tower, died when the mage tower collapsed, and Jiangshi Baekya died during the party operation.

Physically, physically, he died. That’s why I was able to acquire the twin magic core.

However, with the collapse of the Mage Tower, the consciousness of the White Night, the owner of the Mage Tower, was transferred to this mechanical device, and then the ritual was forcibly replaced with the Jiangshi White Night.

I’m getting dizzy… … Anyway, what is now contained in this machine is the consciousness of the midnight sun that was cloned and confined.

I was worried about getting rid of the whole mechanism, but I kept it just in case… .

There will come a time when you really need to take it out.

“How is life in purgatory worth it?”

When I asked mockingly, the midnight sun trembled and looked around.

《How much time has passed since you locked me up here?》

“Well, about half a year?”

“what?! Ooh, don’t be funny, it’s only been half a year… … ?! My consciousness has been locked up for almost eons… … !]

Is time passing slowly in the darkness of that mechanism that is switched off? No, is time passing in the first place?

There was no way I could understand the experience of the data consciousness inside the machine, but it didn’t seem very comfortable to live there anyway. This was good information for me.

Because I have to blackmail this data chunk lich from now on.

“white night. Go ahead and ask.”

I put on a pod and let out a cold exhale.

“Do you want to stay stuck there or… Do you want to get a new body?”

《… .》

“I don’t ask twice. Decide now.”

I could feel the skeleton-shaped mass of data perplexed. Richie, who was stuttering, managed to ask back.

《If I refuse?》

“I will turn off the switch again. You just have to continue contemplating in the darkness as you have always done.”

The white night, which had been shivering, murmured softly before long.

《… Come.”

“Hmm?”

“Give me the body… ! please please… … Don’t lock me in a place where there’s nothing… … !]

Facing the begging White Night, I grinned.

“good. Did you agree?”

I packed up the machine with the Midnight Sun and left my office.

“Then shall we go see your new body from now on?”

The place we headed to was the backyard of the manor house.

Here is the new ‘body’ of the midnight sun that I have prepared.

I brought the mechanism of the Midnight Sun in front of the ‘body’ lying flat on the white blanket in the backyard, and turned the screen to show it to the Midnight Night.

“Now this is it.”

《… What?”

The white night looked visibly flustered and asked me urgently.

“Are you kidding me?”

“No. I’m not kidding.”

“right… Do not be ridiculous. me now… … . >

The Midnight Sun let out a furious scream.

《You mean to enter the body of a fly?!》

That’s right.

What lies in front of me now is the most intact of the corpses of enemies recovered during the battle.

It is a fly the size of a large dog.

“why? Is it possible?”

I sighed.

“You are a strongman. rich. He’s a wizard who can transfer consciousness into an undead body. This fly is also a corpse, and all you have to do is move your consciousness after turning it into a Jiangshi with your magic.”

《It’s not a matter of possible or impossible!》

The midnight sun trembled.

“Don’t be funny, don’t be funny… … ! i’m white That magic king! how i… … Like this… … With the body of a dirty worm… … .》

“Then go into the darkness of that abyss again.”

When I put my hand on the switch of the mechanism, the midnight sun shouted urgently.

“Wait a minute! wait for a sec! Please!”

I clicked my tongue and glared at the midnight sun.

“Hey White. Don’t try to negotiate with me. In the first place, you are in a position where you cannot choose an option.”

《… .》

“Choose. Even if it’s the body of a fly, will you be in reality? Or go on and on… … Would you like to stay in the dark?”

The white night, trembling, stammered at me and asked.

“Explain me… . What did you want me to do to put it in the body of a fly like this?”

I grinned. It’s all over.

This is enough to say that the first stage of my plan has been achieved.

***

In order to put the consciousness of the midnight sun into the body of the fly, the work of making the corpse of the fly into a jiangshi began.

While our wizards were preparing as instructed by the Midnight Sun, Diarmudin, who belatedly joined as the leader of the wizards, summoned me with a pale complexion.

“Prince Ash. There is something you need to see right now.”

“yes?”

“It makes sense, this way. hurry.”

Diarmudin took the lead and ran to the teleport gate and quickly threw himself inside. I followed in too.

The place we arrived at is the Cheokhu Tower.

It is a spire built on a mountain far away from the monster’s invasion route, and is under construction to grasp the overall enemy invasion status.

The original reconnaissance base had an accident that collapsed during the previous defensive battle, so it was being moved here… … It has not yet been completed and is not fully functional.

Anyway, why are you here?

“I wanted to see the Lord of the Flies from a little closer somehow, so I looked here… .”

Diarmudin handed me a telescope.

“See for yourself.”

“… ?”

I put my eyes on the telescope.

The Lord of the Flies stood still in the far distance. In zazen, in the posture of a meditative Buddha, he was floating on the mountains and fields where the dark night approached.

“I see the Lord of the Flies, but what… .”

I couldn’t speak

sparkle.

It was because a faint magical light suddenly shone from the side of Lord of the Flies’ large ship.

sparkle. sparkle. sparkle.

yellow light green blue.

The three colors of magic light flickered at regular intervals.

Am I seeing nonsense now?

I rubbed my eyes and put my eyes through the telescope again.

But it was not in vain. It was undoubtedly a truly shining magic light.

“That light… Could it be a signal?”

Any way you look at it, it was clearly an artificial signal.

Diarmudin explained to me, who was perplexed.

“It is the light of the form that wizards leave in their workshops. Leave a mark with your main magic element.”

“… !”

“And those three colors… There is only one mage on the front line here who can handle all three attributes of lightning, wind and water.”

I lowered my telescope and glanced at Diarmudin.

“… Junior.”

Diarmudin calmly nodded. I couldn’t believe it and muttered blankly.

“You mean you’re alive, Junior?”

***

“Hmm~”

Junior stretched for a long time in a swimsuit.

A southern resort with good quality sunlight.

It was an afternoon when I was lying on a sunbed next to a pool full of cold water and reading the magic book I was researching.

Water droplets formed on the surface of a glass filled with ice and slid down. Junior bit into the straw of his drink glass and took a sip.

“Ha good.”

Gently pulling up the sunglasses he was wearing, Junior muttered as he looked up at the sun through the parasol.

“Everything is perfect… Now all I have to do is make a nice lover… … .”

As soon as the words fell out, someone approached with the sound of footsteps beckoning.

‘what? really?’

Junior was slightly excited and slowly turned his head towards it.

‘Who the hell?’

And what appeared with the dazzling sun behind… .

“wake up.”

… He was a stocky, bald old man.

A face covered in blood, sweat, tension and fatigue… … An old dwarf with a messy beard.

“uh?”

Junior, who couldn’t adapt to the sudden change of situation, made a stupid noise.

No, I don’t even know what I like yet. Anyway, I don’t think this is a bit… … ?

Then the Bald Beard Dwarf gnashed his teeth and swung his hand.

“Wake! Wake up!”

match-!

My cheeks turned around and stars flew in front of my eyes.

Only then did Junior wake up. He jumped up from his lying position, bouncing his upper body like a spring.

“omg… omg… ?”

Junior, who was breathing heavily, finally looked around and realized where he was.

It was the inside of a huge structure glistening black.

The eggs of giant flies densely filled the surroundings.

And various animals and plants piled up like a mountain… … .

“This is the belly of the Lord of the Flies… Hatchery… … .”

Junior, trembling, suddenly looked to the side. Huge maggots were swarming over the body of a large goat who was paralyzed and asleep.

Junior tried to scream reflexively, but her mouth was blocked by the dwarf’s wide hand. Junior could barely contain his screams.

“Shh!”

The Dwarf desperately held his breath and whispered.

“calm down. Calm! If we scream, we all die. So shh… … !”

Only then did the true Junior realize who the opponent was. Junior, who took a deep breath, whispered.

“… Kelly Bay? You’re alive… … !”

“Of course you are alive. Do you think the last survivor of the Golden Bough Expedition will die in a place like this?”

Kelly Bey grumbled, lowered her stance to the point where she almost squatted down, and gesticulated to lead the way. Junior crawled up and followed him.

clumsily… … .

Right next to where she left, maggots were feasting on goat meat.

Junior felt sick to his stomach as he realized that he would have been like that if he had stayed asleep a little longer.

She eagerly followed Kelly Bay and crawled through the burrow.

It wasn’t long before a spacious room appeared. All the survivors belonging to the World Defense Front were gathered here. Kellison and chain were all visible.

“Everyone is safe… !”

When Junior was pleased, Kellison smiled bitterly and his lips trembled.

“… I think it’s too early to say that.”

“yes?”

“Shh! Everyone get down!”

As soon as Kelly Bay spoke, everyone fell flat on the floor as promised.

Junior was taken aback, but when Kelly Bey, who was lying down first, hurriedly beckoned, he fell to the floor.

Doo doo doo… … .

Soon, hundreds of adult flies appeared in the hallway next to the room.

Each of them brought a paralyzed deer, antelope, or something like that, piled one on top of another in the next room, and then slipped away again.

“… This is literally their stomach.”

Kelly Bay whispered when all the adult flies were gone.

“We were caught for food. If the paralysis goes away, the maggots will continue to feed.”

“How did you get rid of the paralysis… ?”

“We dwarves have thick skin. Paralyzing needles don’t even work in the first place.”

Dwarves themselves have high resistance to physical abnormalities. It seemed that he had seen the virtue.

However, among the fallen crew members, there were still many who could not wake up. Kelly Bay clicked her tongue.

“… I was lucky. My friends who are severely paralyzed are still unconscious.”

When Junior looked up, Chain was still unconscious.

Kelly Bay seems to have been traveling around the hatchery, rescuing survivors and bringing them here.

“so… What now?”

The adult flies swarmed once more. Lying flat on the floor and pretending to be dead, Junior whispered to Kelly Bay.

“You can’t lie here forever like this!”

“We have to escape.”

“escape? how?”

At that time, Kellison, who had crawled to the side, smiled and accepted the words.

“As a dwarf’s specialty.”

chuck! chuck! chuck!

As soon as the words were spoken, the dwarves laughed fiercely and took out tools from their respective arms.

“I have to dig a hole.”

Junior opened his mouth at the absurdity, but Kellison took out his hammer and glared at Kelly Bay as he carefully held it.

“It was for a day like today that my father put me in a dungeon and raised me from a very young age. isn’t it?”

“Well then. Our species has been preparing for a day like today… !”

The father and son of the dwarves giggled wickedly and put their tools on the hatchery floor.

“Let’s drill a hole in the monster’s stomach… !”

“Very, very loud!”
